Chapter 47.1

The evidence was conclusive.

Gu Yanshu couldn’t deny it anymore.

Seeing that the little liar was cowering at a visible speed, Shen Jue was both angry yet amused. “So, where did you learn to become a compulsive liar? Will you only be happy if you lie and make me angry?”

“No.”

Gu Yanshu took back his phone, pushed Shen Jue away, and returned to his seat.

“Then tell me, why did you lie?”

Gu Yanshu didn’t speak.

Shen Jue tried to lift Gu Yanshu’s cap up, but the latter slapped his hand away.

“Mm?”

“So I think I’ve suffered a loss.”

“…”

There was silence for three seconds.

Shen Jue couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

Gu Yanshu said with a cold expression, “You’re not allowed to laugh.”

“Alright, alright, I won’t laugh anymore.”

Gu Yanshu’s face turned even colder. “You call this not laughing?”

“I’m sorry. I can’t help it. I’ll try harder.”

Gu Yanshu couldn’t take it anymore. “What’s so funny about this?”

“Nothing. I just think you’re cute.” Shen Jue restrained himself from laughing, but he couldn’t hide the smile in his voice.

He really thought that Gu Yanshu was cute. The latter had clearly attended his movie premiere, but because he mistakenly thought that Shen Jue didn’t keep his word, he pretended that he didn’t keep his word either, as if he wouldn’t suffer a loss this way. How could such a stubborn and petty person still be so awkward about it?

However, this awkwardness, which belonged to someone who would always appear cold, rational, distant, and gentle in the eyes of others, made him look even cuter.

But Gu Yanshu didn’t think this was cute at all. He pinched the top of his cap with his fingers and pulled it down, maintaining his cold voice. “If you want to laugh again, just leave. If you’re not going to leave, then concentrate on the movie.”

“Didn’t you already watch it?”

“Then let’s go home.”

Gu Yanshu really stood up after saying that, but Shen Jue quickly pressed him back down. “Alright, alright, let’s not talk about it anymore. Let’s watch the movie.”

Silence finally returned to the hall.

The movie began. 

This was a suspenseful literary film. The graphics were exquisite, the plot was intriguing, but the rhythm was soothing.

Shen Jue played a pair of twins who grew up in an orphanage. They lost their parents when they were young, and they relied on each other, so when they were very young, the two of them made a promise to each other that they would be together for the rest of their lives.

However, later, a rich couple came to the orphanage and took a fancy to the elder brother. They didn’t like the skinny and weak younger brother, so the older brother left with the rich couple, and the two of them never saw each other again.

The younger brother was bullied in the orphanage, so he escaped. He wanted to find his elder brother, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t find him. He escaped from the clutches of death many times, and almost got sold away. In the end, he was adopted by an old fisherman, but he didn’t have money to go to school. The elderly man who adopted him died of illness and didn’t have money for treatment. The girl he liked despised him for being poor, and left with someone else.

When he reached a point where he lost all hope in life, he met a man who looked exactly like him, because of a murder case. That man had everything, but he said he never had a brother.

The fates of the two of them were entangled because of the murder case. They tested each other and treated each other with hostility, yet also saved and took care of each other.

In the end, it appeared that the elder brother lost his memory, and the younger brother went to jail.

However, many film critics analysed the details and felt that it was the younger brother had lost his memory, and the elder brother took on his identity to take the blame for him.

Everyone had different opinions and argued for two whole months, but both sides couldn’t completely convince the other.

This was because even though the elder brother and the younger brother, both of whom were portrayed by Shen Jue, looked identical, they had completely different personalities. There were also many scenes where the elder brother imitated the younger brother, as well as scenes where the younger brother imitated the elder brother. However, in those scenes, the audience could clearly tell if this character was the younger brother or the younger brother imitated by the elder brother, through Shen Jue’s exquisite acting skills.

It was also because of this level of acting that Shen Jue deserved to win the Best Actor award.

However, in the end, the police took one of them away. When the one who was arrested turned around to look at his brother, their gazes at that moment seemed to suggest that they had each become their brother, so much so that the audience could no longer tell them apart.

And when the director was interviewed, he simply said, “Whoever lives in your heart is the one who was saved”.

The ending became an unresolved conclusion.

The scene froze at a heavy snowfall that covered all traces.
